Weigh in Wednesday (2): Contemporary vs Fantasy



Contemporary vs Fantasy

This week’s Weigh in Wednesday topic is : Contemporary vs Fantasy. I’m never a fantasy fan, so my answer is obviously contemporary! I love contemporary because it talks about real life, what is going on on the real world, what real people face in real life, and what they do about it. By reading contemporary I got so much valuable lessons about the world, life and people. Still, I sometimes read fantasy, but only for a refreshing, usually after reading some ‘tough’ classics…

How about you? Are you a contemporary or a fantasy?

  4. Huh, I do the opposite, I read contemporary when I need a refresh from some other genre ;) so I'm all for fantasy, although I do love reading contemporary, too :)

  6. Sorry it took a while to get back to you - at least I'm in time for tomorrow! :)

    Good points about why you prefer contemporary. It's all personal taste I guess but sometimes it is nice to vicariously live the lives of others through contemporary literature!
